Suggestions for pike fly patterns?

Question

Does anyone have any ideas for patterns for pike flies.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I'v had my best luck with bucktails and streamers.  Bright colors seem to work the best for me.  My favorite is a Mickey Finn.

Answer 2

muddler or a mouse

Answer 3

I haver had great luck using Bob Clouser's half and half, front half red buck tail, back half white strung hackle.

Answer 4

In late summer we usually do well with either, large surface poppers, or, minnow immitations.

Answer 5

All of these patterns will work, even saltwater flies like the clouser minnow has caught me pike, the zonker has woked well, but the bigger the better when it comes to pike flies, synthetic materials work better than natural ones, strong hooks are needed, i like to crimp the barb so hook removal is easier due to the teeth.
